At the initiative of the Union of Armenians of Russia (UAR), Russian
writers paid a two-day visit to Armenia and met on September 18 their
Armenian colleagues at the Writers’ Union of Armenia (WUA). Time
was short and the get-together did not turn into a relaxed powwow of
friends. Russian writers informed their Armenian colleagues about the
situation, approaches and tendencies in the literary world. Armenian
and Russian writers emphasized the importance of restoring the former
literary bridges and mutual visits. Levon Ananian, chairman of the WUA,
thanked Ara Abrahamian (UAR) for organizing this meeting.

All Russian writers were somehow connected with our country for whom
the Armenian culture is not a terra incognita.
